On Thursday 26 March 2015 from 18:30, the Chamber of Commerce in Luxembourg-Kirchberg will host the opening of the first exhibition of pioneering women entrepreneurs in Luxembourg.
The exhibition will enable people to discover the portraits of 12 exceptional women who have chosen to defy taboos and obstacles to manage their business.
This exhibition is the result of a desire on the FEALU, a network of Luxembourg Entrepreneurial Ambassadors, to enhance the careers of these pioneering women, and as a source of inspiration for other women and girls in order to encourage female entrepreneurship. The ambition of FEALU is not a substitute for the historian but to honour portraits of exceptional women.
This exhibition will be displayed during opening hours at the Chamber of Commerce until 3 April. It will then be moved to different institutions. The full programme will soon be visible on www.femmespionnieres.lu
